Scott Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Rears sound a bit wide to me for 9.5" wheels. 265s would be better suited. What are the offsets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra N_A Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 so you just think 265s tyres on the back but the actual size of the alloy etc is fine?? erm front et30 and rear et35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 As said already the rears are too big, the optimum size is 255 or 265 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 so you just think 265s tyres on the back but the actual size of the alloy etc is fine?? erm front et30 and rear et35 Alloy size is fine, it's the same as stock 17" TT wheels. You could push it to 10" if you fancied it, that way you could get the 285s on there with ease. ET30 should be OK at that size, it will sit a lot closer to flush than stock. ET35 should also be OK but if you go with 285s you might need a slight shave/roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 cheers so just down the rear tyre size to 255/30/18 then ?? sorry new to mucho bigger wheels as was buying 15s for my tiny cars lol If going with 255s a 35 profile is closer to stock. I would go with 265s though, just for that bit extra grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I'd get the suspension geometry checked while your fitting wheels & new tyres on your car, might save you few £££'s in wearing out your tyres prematurely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
